Hey. I have one problem since I updated android to 6.0.1. File Commander do not show micro SD card (2GB) and I can't find USB FLASH DRIVE folder too (anywhere). On older version everything was alright with SD card. Any solutions? By the way sorry for bad english!

P.S - Sony Xperia Z3+ (6.0.1 too) can't read SD card too, USB flash drive too! I think it's software bug..

Hi @LukasV007,

In Android 6 third-party apps, such as File Commander, must go through the Storage Access Framework to interact with files on the portable storage. Direct access to the portable storage is blocked for privacy and security reasons. This is something that needs to be updated by File Commander's developers. There's a discussion about this on the Z5 board so feel free to check out that topic as there are some apps that has already been updated for Android 6.

Regarding your phone not being able to read your SD card I suggest that you check the suggestions posted earlier in this topic and see if they are of help to you.
